Hi there! My name is Mishal, I am a student at the University of Leeds studying for a Bachelor's Degree in Architectural Engineering. Other than academics, I have a passion for playing the piano, swimming, exercising and socialising! Having achieved a, upper second-class degree in Architectural Engineering, an A in A-levels, and a 9 in GCSE Maths, I have a great level of understanding of what is required to excel in studying mathematics. I hope my passion for the subject reflects upon my students and my two main goals for them are success and enjoyment! GCSE’s: 3 9’s (including Mathematics), 4 8’s (including English Language), 1 7 and 2 6’s. A-Levels: A in Mathematics, A in Physics and B in Art & Design. Bachelor’s degree: Achieved a 2:1 class in my 2nd year of studying Architectural Engineering.

Hi, my name is Matthew and I am currently studying biochemistry at university. I have helped and tutored other students in my past classes and am now teaching GCSE biology and chemistry for Edexcel as well as A-level AQA biology and OCR chemistry, but I am also open to other exam boards. I also have other hobbies such as going to the gym and kickboxing as well as travelling when able to. In my GCSEs, I received 8s and 9s in the majority of my subjects with a 9 in biology and chemistry. I then went to achieve 3 A-levels in maths, biology and chemistry whilst also participating in the biology Olympiad. I am now a first year university student studying for a degree in biochemistry.

My name is Giada, an Italian expatriate in the UK for 7 years. I hold a degree in Forensic Science. My passion for learning fuels a desire to share knowledge, embodying a blend of cultural richness and scientific curiosity. I embrace challenges with a positive mindset, making every experience an opportunity for growth. I love adopting different teaching styles according to the students and their specific needs. I teach various subjecs such as Biology, Chemistry and Italian to students from the ages of 10 to 25+. Beyond tutoring, I enjoy spending my time practising yoga, reading books and volunteering. I have struggled with anxiety and have been always a bit of a perfectionist, therefore I have personal experience with how it feels to want to achieve the best one can, and I try to give some help and advice to students from this point of view as well. I have helped students with ADHD and dyslexia achieve great results in their university exams and coursework, therefore I have an awareness of how these conditions affect each individual differently and how to try and tweak my teaching style accordingly. I am a graduate of Abertay University, where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Forensic Sciences in 2021, achieving a 1st class degree. Throughout my four-year course, I demonstrated a strong commitment to academic excellence and was recognised with prizes for outstanding achievements in both biology and chemistry-related subjects. My Biology knowledge is strong across all exam boards and I have a particular interest in Genetics and Molecular Biology. During my time at Abertay University, I served as the Class Representative for two consecutive years, actively contributing to the academic community and fostering communication between students and faculty. This experience honed my leadership and organizational skills. Engaging in the Research Volunteer Scheme (of a chemistry-based project) provided me with invaluable practical experience in applying the research process. This training enhanced my understanding of the scientific method and its application in real-world scenarios. As an Online Peer Mentor, I supported new students on their academic journey, demonstrating my dedication to fostering a positive and inclusive learning environment. In my dissertation, I delved into the intricate realm of mRNA and miRNA, showcasing my in-depth knowledge of these molecules alongside DNA in both general biology and forensic biology. This research experience not only expanded my understanding of molecular biology but also sharpened my analytical and investigative skills. Overall, my academic journey at Abertay University has equipped me with a solid foundation in forensic sciences, complemented by hands-on research experience and a commitment to academic and peer support. I am eager to apply this wealth of knowledge and skills in teaching younger generations. I have been working in industry ever since. I possess academic as well as professional application of biology and chemistry knowledge. I am Italian, therefore I can offer Italian lessons to English speaking students. My experience in tutoring has been mostly with my peers (ages 18-22), however, I have also gained experience with children from ages of 8 to 17.
